    The coffee area and counter
    Tom B.

    OK, there are coffee shops, and then there are more coffee shops. There's ubiquitous Starbucks, drive thrus, gimmick places, and you name it... but this place is the most authentic I have found in a very long time. And who would believe it would be in the heart of Needles, California! Ready to cross the desert, we needed a brew to liven us up. We checked Google maps, and this place came up! We are so glad we took the effort to go a very short distance to try it out. What is amazing is that you can have an amazing coffee while also having your oil and filter changed, tires rotated, and ac checked. It's a small little business that does it all off the beaten path of the notorious places around town that rip people off with unneeded repairs needing to be done when stopping for gas. Yes, 60 Minutes even did an expose on it several years ago. Needles has a reputation and not a good one! This place is small, super clean, and very upscale and contemporary! Watch out Needles, trendy design is on the way! Now for the coffee. We got two mid-size lattes, I believe 16oz. The barista was wonderful, friendly, and such a professional perfectionist at making coffee. He was so meticulous at every step, and the brew was phenomenal. So delicious. It made the drive across the desert a delight, and nowhere near the cost of a Starbucks version, at better quality! So, if passing through Needles- STOP, and have a great brew, not that far off the highway, in town.

    We stayed in Needles overnight on our way home. We needed some good coffee to start the long drive home in the morning ( No Starbucks here!!). My husband suggested The Filter Change! What! Coffee here? What a great place to stop! The cafe is adorable, the owner & barista are friendly and the coffee was perfect!

    I really appreciated this little coffee stop on my way to the Grand Canyon! My iced latte was just okay to be honest, but the service was great and it was a super cute shop. It's also cool that it's in a little old town that looks like nothing has changed in 50+ years & has a body shop attached to the coffee shop. May not be cool to some, but to me it is lol I'd return again if I pass by and need an iced coffee to get me through another road trip.

    Cutest coffee shop we've always seen it on our way to Laughlin but this was our first time stopping in. Custom smoothies and a variety of coffee choices. We didn't need an oil change, just caffeine come one come all
